It was a really gloomy overcast day and I was racking my brain to think of where I could get a nice photo and suddenly it came to me, Fallasburg Park in Lowell! (google map link here). And, Bingo! I was right! This place is serene and beautiful. Except for when I was pulling into the park, two gigantua wild turkeys blasted by me and gave me a dirty look. Too bad I didn’t get a record of that.

One more thing, I just want to thank everyone who keeps coming back to see my blog. And I want to thank all the places that have written nice things about my blog and linked to it. I’ll save that for another post, since I want to make sure I don’t leave anyone out and give links. I’m noticing that my visitors keep growing and growing and I appreciate all of you who enjoy making this part of your day. Thank you!

Scary dad swan? Read the post below, you’ll understand.

I took this picture in Whitehall with my friend Lisa. The swans were off in the distance but Lisa managed to score some bread from someone on a docked boat and bribed the swans over to us. The funny thing is that once they were right up to where we were she kept warning me, “I didn’t know they would get this close! Don’t let the dad get too close! I mean it Ann, he’s getting awful close, see how he’s looking at you. Oh! I’m not kidding you, watch it!!!” Apparently Lisa was attacked by a goose a while back and it was not a good experience for her due to the 7 foot wingspan and bruises it inflicted.

Aren’t they pretty though?

Here’s the same spot where I took the picture of the dragonfly. This is the Little Point Sable Lighthouse in Whitehall. Whoops, thanks to help from one of my visitors, I’m correcting this, it’s actually the White River Lighthouse. I also took pictures of the Little Point Sable Lighthouse and will be posting them soon.

This is the view from across the water, which is a little harder to get to but worth it. The view is better and it’s not as busy. Here’s a google map link so you can see it from my perspective in Medbery Park

Okay, so technically this isn’t really called Lilly Pad Park, but it should be. I took this picture in a little park off the beaten path in Whitehall. There is a long boardwalk that goes into this field of lilly pads and cattails, it is near Funnel Field.

You would not believe the grossness I walked through to get this shot. The best photo angle was through a mucky swampy area though, so I walked through it barefoot. I really hope I can get the mud out of my toenails before I have an executive level meeting tomorrow at work.

I took this off Pettis Avenue at Chief Lazy Cloud park in Ada. What a perfect place to watch the sun go down. I heard that the Pettis family owns property adjacent to the park and are going to donate land to make it bigger.
